39-star flag, representing the state of Colorado, is a dramatic ''Great Luminary'' configuration, where the 39 stars form to resemble an even larger star. Silk-blend flag is from sometime after 1 August 1876, when Colorado entered the Union, and likely from the 1880s. Accompanied by an early 20th century photo and period note stating that the flag was carried to France by J. Wilson Carione during WWI. Measures 9.5'' x 6.25''. Uniform age toning and a few discreet snags, otherwise in very good to near fine condition.
